"Ronnie was very professional, easy to work with, and the job was priced fairly. However, his crew removed screening in the soffits which we had installed to keep red squirrels out. They did not put it back so we had to pay someone to redo the job. They painted the deck the day after it rained. Less than a year later it is peeling. Also, the deck stain did not hold well and in some places is down to bare wood. I have contacted Ronnie three times and not heard back."

"Dan was very clean while Painting protecting all my furniture. There was no paint on any of the doorways with the color which was nice. I’ve had problems with people getting the wall paint on the trim and door frames before, so this attention to detail really stood out. Dan took the time to tape and cover everything properly, and it shows in the final result. The lines are clean, the finish is smooth, and the whole space looks professionally done. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking for careful, high-quality painting work."

"Jim was very professional from the time we met him to check our roof from the hail damage, he was not pushy and was very professional, Jim, helped out with everything we needed to get the roof completed after hail damage. Our neighbors were so impressed several of them hired his company as well, his workers were very polite. I would definitely hire him again. They got their work done fast and they cleaned everything up when they were finished. I thought his prices were very fair compared to other companies that we had gotten estimates from. Allrestore has the Certainteed roofing and also has a five-year warranty on the work, That gave us a peace of mind."

"We recently updated our primary bathroom and interviewed several companies to paint our cabinets. We chose Above and Beyond, and we’re so glad we did! Joel repainted our cabinets and did an outstanding job. His promptness during the estimate process was greatly appreciated, and his attention to detail, cleanliness, and professionalism truly stood out. We’re extremely pleased with the results and highly recommend Above and Beyond for any cabinet painting project."

"I would highly recommend this business.  We had them come and restain the deck and at first just powerwash the house.  They scheduled the work right away.  After doing the pressure washing, there were some areas with paint chips under the soffit.  Mike offered to repaint those for free.  During this, they noticed areas of the soffit that were rotten, so we had them repair those areas of the wood.  They also fixed a few screens that were damaged during the pressure washing for free.  
Everything turned out great, and we are very happy we had this work done.  Mike and Crystal are very professional and easy to work with.  I will be having them do some more work on our house in the near future.

"Luke was a gift! I moved from Colorado into a new home in Prattville, walked in the door and immediately realized I couldn’t live with the existing DIY paint job. I called Luke’s Painting, their estimate was $1400.00 less than their competitors, he started painting two days later. Luke was professional, honest, hard working and always cognizant of the fact that I was working from home while he was painting. The finished product is amazing, a realtor commented on how clean the lines are. I couldn’t be happier. Thank you Luke’s Painting!"
After.. what an amazing difference!

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

When choosing between deck stain or paint, knowing what will last longer is important. Deck paint lasts longer than deck stain. With deck paint, you can get up to 10 years of coverage before you need to reapply. With deck stain, that time is significantly shorter at two to three years

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

Beyond liquid rubber, homeowners can use sealants, stains, membranes, or tapes as waterproofing options. Oil-based or water-based sealants soak into the wood, creating a moisture-resistant barrier. Waterproofing stains—available in transparent, semi-transparent, and solid colors—add both protection and style to your deck. For heavy-duty waterproofing, deck membranes and waterproof tapes can be applied under the deck boards to direct water away from the structure below. Whatever method you choose, clean and prep the deck first to ensure the best, longest-lasting results.

The staining or painting process involves cleaning the deck, sanding surfaces, applying a primer (if needed), and carefully applying stain or paint for an even, lasting finish.

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.
